God Equips Us for What He Calls Us

A critical issue to be settled: God has a calling for every one of His children!

Truth: God created and saved me for a Kingdom purpose.

Some excuses for why I do not respond to God’s calling in my life.

Excuse #1 (Ex. 3:11): Who am I?

• Reason for the excuse: I don’t really know me.
• God’s Response (Ex. 3:12): I will be with you!

Excuse #2 (Ex. 3:13): Who are You?

• Reason for the excuse: I don’t really know God.
• God’s Response (Ex. 3:14): I am all-sufficient!

Excuse #3 (Ex. 4:1): What about them?

• Reason for the excuse: I am afraid of how people will react.
• God’s Response (Ex. 4:2-9): That’s my problem, not yours!

Excuse #4 (Ex. 4:10): I can’t do it!

• Reason for the excuse: I’m unqualified.
• God’s Response (Ex. 4:4:11-12): I take responsibility for your weaknesses!

Excuse #5 (Ex. 4:13): I won’t do it.

• Reason for the excuse: I’m inflexible.
• God’s Response (Ex. 4:14-17): I can do it without you!

What will happen when I am obedient to God’s calling in my life (Ex. 4:17, 20)?

God will use me beyond my abilities to reveal His power and display His glory!
